Looks like America's second-largest city is also reducing its police budget. https://t.co/3g7KwnvE4P — PolitiTweet.org

I'm not a policing expert, but the idea that people are just sloganeering as opposed to thinking through the meaning of defunding the police seems off. @KeeangaYamahtta wrote a very detailed piece about the concept a few months ago. https://t.co/Qero0Js9BU — PolitiTweet.org

The slogan Defund the Police, like Black Lives Matter in 2014, created a dialogue that turned some people off--even some black ones. Since all black movements are linked to the Dems, I have no doubt these slogans, particularly Defund, were not helpful to Dems electorally. — PolitiTweet.org
